Part-Time MBA Entertainment, Media, and Sports Management

As a result of the explosion in digital technologies such as high-speed, high-bandwidth,
low-cost internet connectivity and smart mobile devices, the digitization of entertainment
and media is causing a major revolution in the ways in which society consumes media
and experiences entertainment. In turn, this revolution is driving a major transformation
of traditional media and entertainment firms, enabling the emergence of new technology-based
players and the creation of new high-growth sectors such as gaming and eSports.

Together, this radical transformation is creating a need for a new generation of managers
and executives who can be effective leaders and responsible managers of this critical
sector of the LA-area economy. Taught by expert faculty and industry scholars, our
Entertainment, Media, and Sports Management concentration courses will equip students
with the knowledge to be insightful strategists, creative innovators, and effective
operational managers.
